It would be the true original aspect ratio (4:3) for seasons 1 through 5 if Vudu is correct in saying it's "full screen." Those episodes were intended to be seen in 4:3.

Seasons 6 and 7 were filmed for widescreen though, but Vudu also says full screen for them. So that might not be good.

The original DVDs of seasons 1 through 5 were full screen, but the reissues were widescreen. There's a particular scene I remember where people are crowded together watching an interrogation that looks tense in 4:3. In 16:9, it looks really weird because there's all this open space on their sides.

Seasons 6 and 7 were only released in widescreen.
Such an underrated show. Have the DVDs but would buy this if this included any extras
There's a collector's edition bluray set out. I have it and it's great.

Can't seem to find this to purchase in HD anywhere. Looks so good on Hulu can't go back to 480p. The show is the GOAT.

"The Shield" has an average rating of 8.7 on IMDB. Not what I'd call an underrated series. 🙂

Dutch was the most unbelievable character on this show. First of all, a guy like that would never have been hired as a cop. He's way too smart and doesn't have the personality. Second, there's no way he'd have trouble finding a woman as a detective with his salary.

Also, this show, like 99% of shows, does not depict how homicide departments really work. Detectives do not have a heart of gold, they just want to clear cases.

There are people in every profession that don't necessarily belong. People are drawn to law enforcement for the power and respect that comes with the job. At least they used to..

The media determine whether something is MA, not the provider. If there are shows that are MA, I'm not aware of them. Most (if not all) shows are not MA.

MA does not do TV shows.

"TV shows are not available currently in Movies Anywhere."
